Answer:

-----×1/72

Step-by-step explanation:

The order of operations says do these operations in order left to right. Please note that ÷ means the same as / unless you define it otherwise in your problem statement.

If you intend the ÷ symbol to be used to indicate everything to its left is divided by everything to its right, it is appropriate to use parentheses for that grouping, as in ...

(-----×1/4)÷(6×3/9) = (-----×1/4)÷2 = -----×1/8

_____

Here, we're going to evaluate what you have written according to the usual rules as described above.

(-----×1/4)÷6×3/9 = -----×1/24×3/9 = -----×(3/24)/9

= -----×1/8/9

= -----×1/72

_____

Comment on the arithmetic

Fractions are multiplied and divided in the usual way:

a/b×c = (a×c)/b

a/b/c = (a/b) × (1/c) = a/(b×c)

___

Comment on fractions and parentheses

Please note that parentheses are required on any numerator or denominator that consists of anything other than a single number or variable. (The exception is the case where the numerator is a product, because a·b/c = (a·b)/c with or without the parentheses.)

In a volleyball game, a player on one team spikes the ball over the net when the ball is 10 feet above the court. The spike driv

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

4.75 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial height of the ball from the ground = 10 feet

Upward initial velocity given = 55 feet per second

Value of g ( acceleration due to gravity) = 32.2 feet per s²

Motion of the ball:

The ball first goes vertically upwards, gravity decelerates the body and it momentarily comes to rest at a point in its upward trajectory, which is the point of maximum height. From this point, to the ground, the ball behaves as a freely dropped body.

Till the ball reaches its maximum height:

u = + 55

v = 0 ( final velocity is zero)

a = - 32.2 (since it is deceleration)

we know that v = u + at

⇒ 0 = 55 - 32.2t

⇒ t = 1.7 s

Also , we have s = ut + (1/2)at²

Here, s is the maximum height from the point where ball is thrown

So, s = 55(1.7) - (0.5)(32.2)(1.7)(1.7)

⇒ s = 140 feet

So at a height of 140 feet + 10 feet (initial height) = 150 feet, the ball acts as a freely dropped body.

Here, u = 0

a = +32.2

s= 150

s = ut + (1/2)at²

⇒ 150 = 0.5 ( 32.2) (t²)

⇒ t² = 300/32.2 = 9.31

⇒ t = 3.05 sec

So total time = 1.7 + 3.05 = 4.75 seconds
